...I'm not too sure how this happened, but it's already almost the end of June.
In 21 days, I'll be on my way to Japan and well, I'm not ready at all ヾ(;゚Д゚)ノ
Among the many things that scare me about this trip, there is the fact that I'm not used to write on an everyday basis anymore. It's a problem because it's basically what I will have to do during the next two months. Actually, I've started to translate articles from English to French about a month ago (not fandom related at all) and I was planning on translating a little bit everyday, but I always end up distracted by something else...
And believe me, I'm an expert at getting distracted. About 6 months ago, I suddenly found myself obsessed with KinKi Kids. And I mean OBSESSED. To the point that I think I have seen all the Domoto Kyoudai aired since May 2011. As if trying to catch up with my favorite boys' activities wasn't already time consuming enough 8D;
On top of that, SHARK started around the same time. I kind of fell in love with Kaede/Rina's adorableness, then I learned she was an AKB48 member, just like Minami who I liked a lot as a regular member of Domoto Kyoudai, and then I found myself watching AKB's General Election 10 days ago, realizing I actually know much more 48 group girls than I thought.
I'm almost scared by how fast I can get hooked on some things xD
I was reading through my magazines the other day and by chance, there was an interview of cutie Rina in which she talks about SHARK so I've translated it~
"In the past, I have already played in dramas with some AKB members but this time with SHARK, it was my first time being on my own...At first, I was very worried about having to work at an unfamiliar place. During variety shows, I'm often considered as a "cheerful idiot" but actually, I'm very timid and I'm a pretty gloomy person. (laugh) The director even told me "Please act in a very cheerful way" and I really didn't know what to do! We had to retake the first scenes so many times because I couldn't look at my co-actor Hirano-kun in the eye...I think I finally managed to be less nervous around the time we were filming the 6th episode."
